TITLE IX COMMITTEE MISSION STATEMENTThe purpose of this committee is to develop, strengthen, and raise awareness of gender equity through education and communication. We accomplish this by securing and promoting celebrations of women's achievements that foster gender equity, distributing materials, monitoring issues within the school community, and encouraging student participation in all endeavors toward this goal.

As a reminder, the 4 remaining Title IX meetings for the 2011-2012 school year are Jan. 18, Feb. 29. Mar. 28, and the final award ceremony May 9.

I have been informed by SEPTA that we have a new committee member from their unit. Welcome Christine.

Should any of you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me either by email msr2511@optonline.net or by phone 320-5089.Michelle Rosen____________________________________________________________
